plode. Do not reverse polarity by connecting
positive (+) to negative (–), or a battery ex-
plosion and serious damage to the electrical
system may occur.
Follow the standard engine starting procedure.
NOTICE
Do not operate the starter continuously for
more than 5 seconds, or the starter overheat
and the battery power will drop temporarily.
